  • I don’t care if you don’t mind having harm done to you, the entirety of the USA would suffer from continued data collection by the CCP. The entirety of the USA would suffer from more “pig butchering” scams, more industry hacks and subterfuge, more US Military installations being mapped out. That’s all ignoring their impact on politics.

    So stop bothering us here and go screw around on RedNote if thats what you think.




  • They did write data privacy laws when they banned TikTok. Read HR 815 Division H and Division I of 118th Congress, which is just HR 7520 and 7521 bundled into a larger bill.

    The original text of HR 7520 is:

    (a) Prohibition.—It shall be unlawful for a data broker to sell, license, rent, trade, transfer, release, disclose, provide access to, or otherwise make available personally identifiable sensitive data of a United States individual to—

    (1) any foreign adversary country; or

    (2) any entity that is controlled by a foreign adversary.

    (b) Enforcement by Federal Trade Commission.—

    (1) UNFAIR OR DECEPTIVE ACTS OR PRACTICES.—A violation of this section shall be treated as a violation of a rule defining an unfair or a deceptive act or practice under section 18(a)(1)(B) of the Federal Trade Commission Act (15 U.S.C. 57a(a)(1)(B)).

    (2) POWERS OF COMMISSION.—

    (A) IN GENERAL.—The Commission shall enforce this section in the same manner, by the same means, and with the same jurisdiction, powers, and duties as though all applicable terms and provisions of the Federal Trade Commission Act (15 U.S.C. 41 et seq.) were incorporated into and made a part of this section.

    (B) PRIVILEGES AND IMMUNITIES.—Any person who violates this section shall be subject to the penalties and entitled to the privileges and immunities provided in the Federal Trade Commission Act.

    (3) AUTHORITY PRESERVED.—Nothing in this section may be construed to limit the authority of the Commission under any other provision of law.

    Definition of Foreign Adversary:

    “(4) FOREIGN ADVERSARY COUNTRY.—The term “foreign adversary country” means a country specified in section 4872(d)(2) of title 10, United States Code.”

    Which states:

    “(2) Covered nation .— The term “covered nation” means— (A) the Democratic People’s Republic of North Korea; (B) the People’s Republic of China; (C) the Russian Federation; and (D) the Islamic Republic of Iran.”

    But I think it also includes a few other countries, idk if this text is up to date.








  • Israeli’s announced the deal on wednesday and then:

    “Israel appeared to ramp up its strikes Wednesday evening, killing more than 70 people between the ceasefire deal being announced and Thursday morning, according to the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health and the enclave’s Civil Defense rescue agency. Both agencies told CBS News that the dead including 21 children and 24 women.”

    Also, there are still ongoing hostilities with Lebanon.

    But hey, since the Ceasefire happened before Trump took office, does that mean we’re going to give credit to Biden for ending the war in Gaza? Are you going to thank him?


  • I wonder if that literacy rate ratio change was the result of the mass exodus and death as poor people starved in the late 20s through 30s as a direct result of the 1920s USSR economic changes which failed to provide means of centralized agriculture management. I don’t actually know for certain, but maybe.

    One thing I will give them is that women were allowed to work as far back as in the early revolution.

    Right Wing is usually defined as conservative and regressive, which definitely applies to CCP and Russia erosion of democracy and rolling back of human rights, and also definitely aligns with the Maga low taxation, less government services, deconstruction of NATO, etc. Tankies supported Trump, btw, his face was being promoted all over Hexbear.





  • A sweatshop is where people, namely children and the elderly, work for wages that could not even afford food and water or possibly even no wages at all. In many cases the people are not allowed to leave. Noteworthy past examples include Nike Sweatshops in east asia including Pakistan, Indonesia, and India.

    Similarly, Apple runs Sweatshops in India, and in December of 2020 a riot broke out where the unpaid workers trashed the facility that assembles iPhones.



  • No, they don’t, because any individual in power who changes elections is always the person you don’t want changing elections.

    You have to realize that any singular person cannot comprehend the relative good or bad of their actions and therefor all good moral principles come from selflessly putting that power in the hands of voters.

    If people want to change how voting works, they have that option. The USA are just dumbasses who keep voting against it.

    It is not and was never Biden’s job to fix everything at every level of government.
